With this auspicious appearance, Augustus and Agrippa assumed leadership of the Xvviri sacris faciundis, the college of priests in charge of festivals, and organized celebrations inaugurating a new age. As part of the celebrations, Augustus commissioned the poet Horace to write a secular hymn, the Carmen Saeculare, which was sung by twenty-seven maidens and an equal number of youths on the occasion of the Ludi Saeculares.
